    Have you ever tried Huevos Rancheros? I realize that they are only eggs, but wow are these eggs good! This was one of the most satisfying breakfasts that I've made in a long time. Rich, spicy, beautiful colors, absolutely delicious. Thanks to Mexico for all the wonderful food!

    How to Make Huevos RancherosPin

    I enjoyed this dish very much. The eggs, still a little runny, have a creamy texture that complements the beans well. The cilantro is very aromatic, and these elements, together with the excellent tomato salsa and queso fresco on top, make for a fantastic dish for breakfast or even dinner. Huevos Rancheros is a wonderful meatless dish. Enjoy it!

      I love huevos rancheros! They're so good and always seem really fancy for a meal. I've never tried them with kidney beans though I bet that tastes great. We've a friend in SF who makes huevos rancheros as his signature dish. He serves champagne with them, if you can believe it!

      Sounds ecellent! I really like the recipes for the beans and salsa. But if I were making this, I'd reduce the amount of beans per serving, and add some cooked diced chorizo (or crumbled, if using bulk chorizo) to each one.

      Thanks for all the great recipes!

      I've actually never had huevos rancheros and that seems like a serious mistake now. What a colorful way to eat breakfast!
